    (PDF) The native file format for Adobe
   Systems' Acrobat.  PDF is the file format for representing
   documents in a manner that is independent of the original
   application software, hardware, and operating system used to
   create those documents.  A PDF file can describe documents
   containing any combination of text, graphics, and images in a
   device-independent and resolution independent format.  These
   documents can be one page or thousands of pages, very simple
   or extremely complex with a rich use of fonts, graphics,
   colour, and images.
